I engaged Rob Whelan and AP Group to assist with the sale of a pharmacy businesses which had undergone several structural and ownership changes prior to being placed into liquidation.

The deal involved a degree of complexity and risk, given the financial status of the businesses and the machinations of the Medicare approval and so forth.

AP Group and, particularly Nicholas Galle were well versed with the industry and the requisite processes and prepared to go the extra mile to complete the transaction.
